CBVC Vehicle Management has debuted a used electric vehicle leasing service for business and personal customers.

The new service offers fully maintained, one-owner used EVs with flexible lease terms, responding to increasing demand for cost-effective fleet electrification and fixed-cost rentals.

Vehicles have been sourced from Lex Autolease and are available with flexible contracts, from 12 to 48 months. Full maintenance – including replacement tyres, subject to normal wear and tear – is provided along road tax, MOT and breakdown cover included.

CBVC says it has a range of high-quality used cars, from two to four years old, available in stock for immediate delivery.

Examples include a 2021 Mini Hatchback Cooper S, available on a four-year/5,000-mile-a-year business lease for £221 a month.

Mike Manners, managing director, said used EV leasing delivers a highly cost-effective option for businesses that also aligns with CBVC’s strategy to support fleets with decarbonisation.

“It provides customers with a really cost-effective way to make the move to EVs. The demand so far has been incredibly strong, particularly as businesses are looking for cost-saving solutions in a challenging economic climate.”

CBVC continues to drive fleet decarbonisation and recently renewed its contract with Europcar Mobility Group UK for the supply and fleet management of employee company cars. The partnership has already resulted in a significant carbon reduction, cutting average CO2 emissions from 129g/km to 29g/km per vehicle. As of six months ago, nearly 80% of Europcar Mobility Group UK company car drivers now drive battery electric cars.
